A Right Relationship
With God
by David Cunningham
 
A story is told of an accountant who answered an advertisement for a top job with a large firm.  At the end of the interview, the chairman asked, “One last question—what is three times seven?”  The accountant thought for a moment and replied, “Twenty-two.”

After the interview and on his way home, the accountant checked himself on his calculator and figured because he gave the wrong answer that he had lost the job. But two weeks later he got a call and was offered the job. He asked the chairman why he had been appointed when he had given the wrong answer.  “You were the closest one to the right answer” the chairman replied.

The harsh reality of life is that there are so many people that think that God is like the man who conducted the interview. They think it doesn’t really matter what you believe as long as you’re close to the truth.

Our society cringes when we proclaim that the Bible is true, and that we can know absolute truth. We live in a postmodern culture where the prevailing wisdom is that there is no absolute truth at all.  And if there is no absolute truth, there is no absolute way to live. So the postmodernist reasons that he can live anyway that he wants as long as he doesn’t hurt someone else in the process.  But the Bible not only claims to be true, it claims to be the source for everything we need to live life (2 Peter 1:3; 2 Timothy 3:16).
 
Postmodernism teaches “inclusivism”, which means that everyone’s opinion of truth is equally valid.  The following quote attributed to President George W. Bush in an October 4, 2007 interview with Dubai based Al Arabiya is a good example of postmodern inclusivism.
